Summary: The Department of the 

Treasury (Treasury) is issuing this 

Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) 

to invite applications from State and 

local governments for awards under the 

Social Impact Partnerships to Pay for 

Results Act (the ‘‘Act’’). An award 

recipient will receive payment if a 

specified outcome of the social impact 

partnership project is achieved as 

determined by the project’s independent 

evaluator. The payment to the Awardee 

must be less than or equal to the value 

of the outcome to the federal 

government over a period not exceeding 

ten years from the date implementation 

commences. Awards made under this 

NOFA will be administered by Treasury 

or by another federal agency with 

expertise in the social benefits 

addressed in the proposed project. 

Treasury expects to award up to 

approximately $40.9 million in such 

competitive project grants under this 

NOFA. Treasury will prioritize projects 

that directly benefit children in order to 

meet the statutory threshold that 50 

percent of awarded funds be used on 

awards that directly benefit children. In 

addition, State and local governments 

receiving project grants will be eligible 

to receive a grant for up to 15 percent 

of the project grant amount to pay for all 

or a portion of the cost of a statutorily 

required independent evaluation, which 

will be paid regardless of whether 

outcomes have been met. Treasury 

expects up to approximately $6.1 

million to be available to pay for the 

costs of independent evaluations under 

this NOFA.

A. Program Description 

1. Program Purpose and Authorizing 

Legislation 

In 2018, Congress appropriated $100 

million to Treasury to implement the 

Social Impact Partnership to Pay for 

Results Act (the ‘‘Act’’), which 

established a new grant demonstration 

program to encourage funding social 

programs that achieve results (the 

‘‘SIPPRA program’’).1 Under this NOFA, 

Treasury announces the availability of 

approximately $40.9 million for 

payments for successful outcomes of 

social impact partnership projects 

through grants to State and local 

governments, and, for required project 

evaluations, the availability of up to 

approximately $6.1 million. All awards 

provided through this NOFA are subject 

to funding availability. 

As stated in the Act, the purposes of 

the SIPPRA program are: 

(1) To improve the lives of families 

and individuals in need; 

(2) To redirect funds away from 

programs that, based on objective data, 

are ineffective, and into programs that 

achieve demonstrable, measurable 

results; 

(3) To ensure federal funds are used 

effectively on social services to produce 

positive outcomes for both service 

recipients and taxpayers; 

(4) To establish the use of social 

impact partnerships to address some of 

the Nation’s most pressing problems; 

(5) To facilitate the creation of publicprivate partnerships that bundle 

philanthropic or other private resources 

with existing public spending to scale 

up effective social interventions already 

being implemented; 

(6) To bring pay for performance to 

the social sector, allowing the United 

States to improve the impact and 

effectiveness of vital social services 

programs while redirecting inefficient or 

duplicative spending; and 

(7) To incorporate outcomes 

measurement and randomized 

controlled trials or other rigorous 

methodologies for assessing program 

impact.2

2. Funding Type 

The Act provides funds for two types 

of awards: (1) social impact partnership 

project grants, including grants to pay 

for independent evaluations for such 

projects, and (2) feasibility study grants. 

This NOFA only relates to funds for 

social impact partnership project grants 

and funds for the cost of a grantee’s 

independent evaluation. An awardee 

under this NOFA will receive a 

disbursement only if the awardee 

achieves one or more outcomes 

specified in the award agreement and if 

such outcomes are validated by an 

independent evaluation. The federal 

payment to the awardee for each 

specified outcome must be less than or 

equal to the value of the outcome to the
